Southern Fried Catfish Recipe
Fish and Chips

Here is an old time classic southern fried catfish recipe using fresh fish fillets that have been battered and deep fried to a perfect golden brown color... Crispy on the outside, and moist and flaky on the inside.

It's great as snack by itself, or as a meal when combined with your choice of a side such as steak fries or regular french fries. Add a dipping sauce such as tartar sauce, or drizzled with malt vinegar and we are off to the races.

I'm salivating with anticipation.
